Her words made a significant impact that day. She spoke on many things such as Black History Month and Clark's theme, to commemorate the month, The Evolution of Blackness. She encouraged us to start thinking of Black history as our collective history. Giving her own tales of her youth and ancestry, she thoroughly entertained and captivated her audience. Other topics she touched on were the importance of education, internal US party politics, and foreign policy.
If you haven't heard Ms Brazile speak, you should! Not many political figures can relate to her audience and make you feel a part of the conversation. Ms. Brazile is definitely a wise woman, with even wiser words.
